Vote for ‘Subtle Sexuality’ as SXSW panel
SXSW (South by Southwest) is a yearly conference held in Austin, Texas, that celebrates interactive content, film, and music. SXSW 2011 is scheduled for March 11-20, 2011.
NBC.com has submitted Subtle Sexuality: NBC.com Adds Spice to Shows as a panel and needs your vote to get accepted!
From now until August 27, fans can vote for the panels they’d like to see accepted into the conference. (Fan votes make up about 30% of the decision.)
If accepted, I think the whole Subtle Sexuality team (Mindy Kaling, Ellie Kemper, B.J. Novak, Ed Helms, Nate Federman, and Jonathan Hughes) should attend. :)

Ferraby Lionheart’s “Harry And Bess”
The Office’s Rainn Wilson appears in the video for Ferraby Lionheart’s single “Harry And Bess,” from his newest album The Jack of Hearts available today.
According to ferrabylionheart.com, this song is “about Harry Houdini and his wife. The story goes that Bess Houdini passed a key to Harry in a kiss (after an hour of struggling at a widely publicized 1904 escape).”
What’s Rainn doing in the video? “Wilson plays a ‘strange and menacing butler [who] tries to distract and entertain’ Lionheart’s ‘daydreaming artist’ character.” (Spin.com)
This is one toe-tapping, quirky, charming song. I loved it. And Rainn isn’t bad either. :)
Subtle Sexuality will return!
From New York Magazine:
Lead singer and director Mindy Kaling tells us there are “pretty ambitious” plans for the group: “There’ll be two songs and two music videos, and the whole cast [including Ellie Kemper, Ed Helms and B.J. Novak] is coming back.” Kaling will direct both videos, as well as the webisodes accompanying the songs. So will the new tracks be dance-oriented like “Prima Donna,” or can we look forward to a slow jam? “The writers tried to cover so many different genres [with the songs] because we do it so infrequently,” Kaling explains, promising that at least one video will have elements of time travel.
